Common Questions

No. A bachelor’s degree is preferred for guaranteed placement, but non-degree holders can still join the course — job availability may just vary.

What does the program fee cover?

Your fee covers course materials, all training sessions, and your Level 5 TESOL/TEFL certification. Flights, visas, and most accommodation/living costs are separate.

What's the difference between the routes on offer?

The TEFL Course in Cambodia (4 weeks, $1,395) starts from zero and needs no prior TEFL. The Topup Programme (3 weeks, $825) is for those who already have a TEFL and need to upgrade it. The Hybrid Programme (online + 3 weeks in-person, $925) is open to anyone — study the theory remotely, then join in-country for the practical weeks.

You’ll get guidance on homestay, hostel, or shared accommodation during training. Some options are arranged by the provider, others are paid locally by trainees.

What can I expect to earn?

Degree-holding teachers can expect $1,000–$1,600 per month; non-degree holders typically earn $800–$1,500. Cambodia’s low cost of living means most teachers can save after expenses.
